Flag Retirement Ceremony To Be Held At Fairgrounds

A public American Flag retirement ceremony will be conducted

at the Owen County Fairgrounds on Sunday, November 14.

The 1:00 p.m. ceremony, to take place near the fairgrounds’ main arena, provides the proper method of retiring Old Glory in an impressive program that ends with the collection of used, unserviceable flags being burned.

Anyone having flags they would like to have properly retired should deliver them to the VFW Post #1405 in Spencer, VFW Post #7850 in Gosport, or the American Legion Post #285 in Spencer.
